Taegukgi hwinalrimyeo


Think Saving Private Ryan! This film is extremely well produced and is showing the potential of the Korean film industry. I have seen several films now done through the same Korean film company that have left a very strong impression on me. The film follows two Korean brothers who unexpectedly get drafted into the war against the communist north. They are forced to join the Korean army and fight for their country by force. I have to say its almost a carbon copy of Saving Private Ryan, but a bit more sentimental, but only a small fraction more. The action scenes in this gave me the impression that they had a large budget behind them, equally as impressive as the scenes in saving private ryan. I gave this film a 10/10!
